Hmmm, if one person sets up a calendar, can anyone update it?

as far as i understand, calendar owner can only grant modification permissions to certain people (identified by their email addresses). but not to everyone.

Interesting, I'll bring it to the attention of the Insiders Agents. Perhaps we can set something up.

I'm actually a little bit confused mustafa. Is this not the same as the existing MacInsiders calender, with the exception of it not being added to one of your email accounts?

@jhan523 i guess it's too much work to have an extra calendar
@lorend yes almost the same. the google calendar is imported to ur account, then u can see compare it against ur calendar which makes it much better to see which event u can attend & which will conflict etc

You CAN make Google Calendar's public.. but you can't allow the public to add events, you have to invite people to be contributors.
Unfortunately it doesn't appear that the MacInsiders calendar has an iCal export, so you can't make it into a Google Calendar but I'll see if I can find an add-on. If anyone else knows of an addon to add the feature to VBulletin Calendar, let me know |

Chad, can you embed anything into the forum? If we can, then I propose embedding a google calendar...
